Captivating Teal vs Skydive

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Skydive (LRV 41) reflects noticeably more light than Captivating Teal (LRV 31), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean green and blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 11.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
